Go Ds

Honestly if we had an obvious replacement - not too young nor old, unlikely to get dropped and obvious leadership qualities - it may well be inspired to give that guy the chance and Gawn might appreciate just being a player. But who is he? With so much change at the club it might actually be wise to still have constants, like Gawn captaining anyway. And if next year is fairly smooth and most of the negativity's gone he might actually enjoy still being captain. I do think they need to look at the leadership group and see if improvements will help Melbourne start winning some close games and avoid that Saints nightmare. But Max must stay captain.

Sorry, I have brain fog (my dear mum died yesterday). But what is HB? Half back? Thank you, we're in shock. You can't choose the timing for these things. I never expected this at Christmas.

If there's topics you feel should be on here then bloody post them! Didn't the Schwarz and Flower threads 'warn' you in the title of what to come. You didn't have to click on them.

Last season's 14th vs 16th with nothing on the line. Maybe there are better venues and times but the AFL probably just wants to get these things out of the way. Will yhe hundreds of spectators even be charged?

Just as long as this place doesn't end up like this! 😂

Thanks for dredging this back up. Are now all the ads gonna be for funeral insurance, hearing aids and incontinence pads? 😢

He named names!

And your wife will be back late in the season?!

Yellow Magic orchestra? I just happened to be watching Rage recently and they played their Taiso. I rarely bother with Rage any more but this song was good - almost like a Japanese Devo. 😂

Naysayers or not every team would have a tipping point with injuries where they can no longer win the flag, make the finals etc. Just about the best (and worst) part of following sports are the surprises. Maybe someone steps up and our backline turns out to be as good or better than the one of recent years. I suspect we'll almost cover Bowey. And what ups and downs! Was he 17-nil and a premiership medallion to start? Certainly he and the team have had misfortune and big challenges since. Question.... are there specific players who after having the same injury ended up playing as well or better after?

Hmm, sounds .... 'Stradivarian'

No, I always think of some version of this for hold music. 🤣 ("Un Homme et Une Femme")

Isn't that every Demonlander? 🤣

Maiden name? Thank you! Using his secret question I've just got into his bank account, Mygov and Netflix. 😂 I bet millions get annoyed that people can't pronounce or spell their name right - even Garry or Crystal. Admittedly it's a very first-world problem.
